Restrained but distinct passion fruit and pineapple aroma, with a light, sharp body. SMV +3 and acidity 1.6 bring citrus-like tartness that tightens the finish, pointing to a dry-leaning, crisp profile in the kun category.

About
Made with premium-grade Yamada Nishiki grown in Shimokume, Hyogo Prefecture. A fruity flavor reminiscent of passion fruit spreads across the palate, followed by a refreshing citrus acidity that tightens the palate and fades cleanly with a lingering finish. The result is a very clean and sharp taste.
